Ensure the safety and stability of the power system- Accident prevention: Transformers are key components of relay protection systems, and their performance directly affects the accuracy of fault diagnosis. The tester can detect potential hazards such as insulation aging and inter turn short circuits in transformers in advance, avoiding protection refusal or misoperation.
- Optimize operation: By detecting the load characteristics of the transformer (such as secondary circuit impedance), ensure that it operates within the rated load range, and prevent accuracy degradation or thermal damage caused by overload.
- Compatibility verification: Test the compatibility between transformers, energy meters, and protection devices to ensure the overall performance of the metering system or protection circuit.
